Swinney updates status of T.J. Chase

Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said that the coaching staff would know more about the status of 2016 wide receiver commit T.J. Chase later this week.

Chase, out of Plant City (FL), was a 4-star prospect expected to compete for playing time this fall. However, he hasn't been cleared academically.

"T.J. Chase, we are still waiting on," Swinney said. "He's not a medical issue. He hasn't cleared all of his issues academically . Hopefully, we will get some good news on him this week. If not, he will go to prep school in the fall and join us in January."
